Outbound Only Banners
Document #:10503

Applies To:
  • MailSite 9.2.x

Synopsis:
With the release of 9.2 and later it is now possible to specify banners that are attached to outgoing messages.

More Information:
MailSite has for many years included the ability to add banners to messages passing through the server. These banners are specified according to the sender’s domain and the text is specified within the MailSite console under Server > Banner Insertion or under Domain > Banner Insertion.

It is now possible to specify that a banner should only be added to messages when the recipient is not in the same domain. This setting is likely to be useful for appending information when sending marketing messages to customers but omitting this information for internal mail. Another use would be to add a legal disclaimer to all outgoing messages.

Every domain only has one banner set. The banner set will be used on mails sent from a mailbox in that domain. You can optionally tag that the banner set for that domain is "outbound only" rather than for all mail. If you do this then rather than adding banners to ALL mail sent from this domain, it will only be added to mail from this domain to another domain. At the present time it is not possible to have one set of banners for outbound mail, and another for internal mail.

Example: If you send a message From example.com, To yahoo.com and example.com, and you have outbound banners, then the banners should be added only to the message received by yahoo.com, not by the message received by example.com

Setting up Outgoing Banners

At the present time there is no graphical user interface for defining these banners.
Registry Setup
WARNING!!
Incorrectly editing the registry can damage the server, please be sure you know what you are doing
  • If it is the default domain, open the registry and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Rockliffe\MailSite\Mailfilter3config
  • Add a DWORD key called Outbound and set this to 1.
  • Restart the services.
  • Otherwise for all other domain put the new key under the domain name e.g HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Rockliffe\MailSite\Domain\ExampleDomainName.com\Mailfilter3config
  • Add a DWORD key called Outbound and set this to 1.
  • Restart the services.
SQL Connector
  • Stop the MailSite services.
  • Look up the domainsID for the domain you wish to enable outgoing banners on in the DomainNames table in the SQL database.
  • Find this ID in the DomainProperties table and set the DomainProperty "mf3_outbound" to 1.
  • Restart the services.

These properties mf3_outbound and outbound can take the value 0 or 1.
